2022 Moss Wood Amy’s, Margaret River, Western Australia

Tasting note

Heaven! I have yet to meet a more ardent fan of Moss Wood wines than yours truly, and this is another epic Aussie wine which is featured in my 100 Best Australian Wines Report 2025. Silky, honed, blackberry-soaked and seamless, Amy’s is one of the most incredible Cabernets on earth, and while it embodies the hallowed turf of Margaret River, it also manages to wink at the Médoc and nudge Bolgheri in the ribs, too, such is the class and detail here. I know the price looks too cheap for it to be a genuinely serious wine, but I can assure you that this is one of the finest value Cabs on planet Earth. -Matthew Jukes

Our thoughts

This Cabernet-Sauvignon dominant Bordeaux blend is sourced from the Glenmore vineyard, 10km north of Moss Wood, with fruit that previously went into the estate’s main wines. Owned by Moss Wood viticulturalist Ian Bell, it was producing such high quality that the decision was made to bottle it separately. While the wine delivers a fresher, more early-drinking profile than the main Moss Wood wines, it does age well, developing wonderful tertiary character after a decade or more. Named in honour of Ian’s grandmother, who would come out of her home to provide iced tea to the vineyard workers, this is one of the best-value Bordeaux blends you could hope to find.
